Imperial Security provides hotel and concierge security for hotels, residential buildings and corporate premises in Shepherd's Bush, covering front-of-house reception, access control, CCTV monitoring and out-of-hours cover for guests, residents, tenants and visitors.
Shepherd's Bush sits around Westfield London and Shepherd's Bush Green, with a growing mix of hotels, apartment blocks and offices that all need a guard on the door who can represent the building well while keeping unauthorised people out. Whether you run a boutique hotel, a residential block or a mixed-use building near the market, our guards are placed to fit how your building actually operates.
Shepherd's Bush is adding hotel and residential stock at a pace that changes what buildings need from front-of-house cover. Hotel Indigo London K West is opening on the site of the former K West Hotel in early 2026 with 231 rooms, and the Old Laundry Yard site next to Shepherd's Bush Market is going through consultation for 40 new homes and an office building with a life sciences incubator. New buildings of this size mean more guests, more deliveries and more unfamiliar visitors passing through lobbies and shared entrances, which is exactly where a trained concierge guard earns their place.
Westfield London and Shepherd's Bush Market both draw heavy footfall past nearby residential and hotel entrances, particularly on weekends and during evening events at the Empire and Bush Hall. Buildings close to these routes need guards who can keep a welcoming front door while still controlling who actually gets past it.

| What Our Shepherd's Bush Hotel & Concierge Security Service Provides
These six duties cover the day-to-day running of hotels, apartment blocks and mixed-use buildings around Shepherd's Bush.
Access control management
Our guards manage every entry and exit point, confirming who has a right to be in the building and logging visitors accurately, which matters most in blocks that mix long-term residents with hotel guests or short lets.
Customer greeting and assistance
Guests arriving from Westfield or the Underground get a warm first impression, with clear directions and courteous help carrying bags or finding the right floor.
Surveillance and CCTV monitoring
We monitor on-site CCTV feeds continuously, spotting loitering or unauthorised access attempts around entrances, car parks and service areas before they escalate.
Incident response and reporting
When something happens, our guards respond calmly, de-escalate where they can and write up a clear incident report that building management and insurers can rely on.
Coordination with emergency services
If police, ambulance or fire attendance is needed, our guards liaise directly with them on arrival and keep building management informed throughout.
Deliveries and contractor control
Guards check couriers, contractors and suppliers against expected deliveries before granting access, which keeps busy loading and reception areas from becoming a security gap.
| Who We Provide Hotel & Concierge Security For In Shepherd's Bush
We work with a range of buyers across Shepherd's Bush who all need a professional, consistent presence at the door.
Hotels
Boutique and mid-size hotels near Westfield and Shepherd's Bush Green need front-of-house guards who greet guests properly while keeping non-residents from wandering into lifts and corridors.
Residential apartment blocks
Concierge desks in private and build-to-rent developments need a guard who can manage parcels, visitor sign-in and out-of-hours access without disrupting residents.
Corporate and office buildings
Offices around Shepherd's Bush, including sites near the growing life sciences and media cluster, need a front desk presence that screens visitors and contractors properly.
Mixed-use developments
Buildings that combine retail, residential and office space, common near the market and Westfield, need one security team managing several types of access at once.
We also cover retail security and corporate security for other premises in the same area if your building includes shop units or office floors alongside hotel or residential use.
| The Security Problems We Solve In Shepherd's Bush
New hotel and residential stock is arriving faster than most buildings' existing front-of-house arrangements were designed for, and Westfield's footfall spills into surrounding streets at closing time. That combination is what generates most of our Shepherd's Bush enquiries.
Unauthorised access through shared entrances
Buildings with fob or intercom entry still get tailgating from people following residents or guests through the door. Our guards physically check who is entering rather than relying on the system alone.
Antisocial behaviour near entrances
Evening crowds leaving Westfield, the Empire or Bush Hall sometimes drift into nearby doorways and courtyards. A visible guard at the entrance moves people on before it becomes a nuisance for guests or residents.
Unscreened deliveries and contractors
Busy hotels and blocks receive constant deliveries, and it is easy for an unchecked van or courier to gain access to back-of-house areas. Our guards verify every delivery against what is expected before it goes further into the building.
Gaps during building works nearby
With redevelopment ongoing around Shepherd's Bush Market and the Old Laundry Yard site, nearby buildings can see more passing site traffic and unfamiliar faces. Our guards keep a closer watch on entrances during periods like this without changing how the building normally operates.
